"Kendall,

You forget to mention the pardons of Bush Sr. (Armand Hammer and Casper Weinberger)and the bribes he allegedly took (campaign and library). When that subject was raised at the Congressional hearings on the Clinton pardon, suddenly (in about 2 days) the hearings were over"

Yeah Kendall

, what the

HELL's

the matter with you?

"Mav, A repeat"

Yes, yes, but still wrong.

"Looking at taxes and spending as a percent of the GDP for 1980 - 1986 Domestic spending (democratic priorities) decreased"

Yes, but the GDP AND tax revenue INCREASED!

The revenue increased from $550B to $991B and the top marginal rate went from 70% in 1981 to 28% in 1989. I other words, IRS collections almost doubled. The economy went nuts, lines at gas stations disappeared.

Reagan had a deal with the unscrupulous democRATS amounting to $2 in spending cuts for every additional $1 in increased revenue. Guess what, Dutch was "stupid" enough to trust the crooks. It must make you proud.

"(So it didn't contribute to the deficit Payroll taxes (the kind you and I pay most of) increased (and didn't contribute to the deficit)"

The brilliant commucRATS are responsible for that one (remember they had both houses?), Tip: "TAX THE BLEEPING POOR"

"Defense spending (Reagan's agenda) increased"

GOOD!...DO IT AGAIN!

"Cheney concurs, as witness his recent remarks on MSNBC about dealing with environmental obstacles to new power plants"

Yes, what it boils down to is, the rest of the world has been successfully RECYCLING their nuclear fuel rods while Jimmy Carter has them burying the RADIOACTIVE NUCLEAR WASTE in YOUR BACK YARD! (Genius)

Perhaps you can provide us with some of the nuclear horrors in Europe as a result of this practice.

Meanwhile back at the ranch (CA) Hydro-electric, coal, oil, natural gas and wind power elecrtic generating plants are all unacceptable.

I hope the reasonable people of CA LEAVE, take their business with them and let the tatooed, multi-pierced, green haired, Goth-mo, enviro-bleeps....FREAKING IN THE DARK!

"Bashing Clinton (and listing his faults and crimes, real or imagined), is beside the point"

Well dad, OK. But Kendall started it, I was just agreeing!
"W is the point"

Yes he is, and the contrast is overwhelming.

"Is there a sense of desperation in what he's doing?"

Probably a sense of urgency, but he's got a real good start.

He's got a lot to do...rolling the country back to where it was 50 years ago.
"As in, maybe the Republican's won't be in control of Congress in 2002?"

Depends on developments and the effectiveness of our education efforts and your "propaganda".

You'll have to make it simple enough so the gimme girls, the union thugs, the "dumbed down" public school graduates, the illiterate, those duped newcomers that don't yet speak "the language", the people in the blue areas, the people in Palm Beach County Florida and Kendall's "stupid" public can comprehend it.

But if the LSCs have the rug yanked out from under them by Huge Tax Cuts and MASSIVE ENTITLEMENT KILLS.....and the by the continuation of prosperity in the private sector.....
